Last fall when bank failures were so frequent many people drew their money out of the banks and hid it in cellars, and some put it down in old, unused wells; others invested it in real estate; but now, since the banks are in a solid condition, their deposits have in creased. There are still some people who do not caro to trust their money in the bank. These people are buying diamonds, knowing that a pure stone is always worth the money. In conversation with Mr. Hallett a Courier scribe learned that more people are buying diamonds this year than ever before. The fact that there are a good many engagements and weddings at this time of the year may have a great deal to ao with the increased sale. Mr. Hallett not only has the most select 6tock of diamonds, but also carries the most com plete line of jewelery in the city. Eyes examined free of charge and glasses at a low figure. Tell your friends to come in and get ac quainted; they will be surprised how cheap they can get silverware, watches, clocks, rings, and all the latest npvelties in jewelery.
